Review: THE BUBBLY BLACK GIRL SHEDS HER CHAMELEON SKIN at Karamu
What did our critic think of THE BUBBLY BLACK GIRL SHEDS HER CHAMELEON SKIN at Karamu? It's been called '...[a] sharp and tasty new musical...charming...as the show ingeniously turns professional perkiness, the lifeblood of the American musical, into a funny, poignant comment on ethnic self-denial.'

BWW Review: BELLA: AN AMERICAN TALL TALE at Dallas Theater Center
There are few things in the world as thrilling as seeing a new work come to life on stage, especially when that stage is the Dallas Theater Center's Wyly Theatre, our local answer to Broadway-caliber theatre. The anticipation and possibility of being the first one to discover a new hit is so exciting - but it is balanced by the opportunity for a show to be unexceptional or 'not ready for primetime.' BELLA: AN AMERICAN TALL TALE, in this writer's opinion, falls into the latter category.
